Crosses & Queens
Lyrics
For 5 long years… In castles tall. With pikes & spears… Guarding the walls. The queen appeared… With crosses in halls. To me adhere… Or lose it all. For 5 long years… The fires burned. Farmers feared… No one learned. Crosses & tears… Heaven was blurred. The queen was clear… The pope you serve. When power leads with an iron hand. Vengeance feeds & takes a stand. 5 years long this queen burned. But with time gone, lessons learned. For 5 long years… Behind their moats. The flames & fears… & deadly smoke. Heaven was dear… But a burning hope. Fanned & seared… By an angry pope. When power leads with an iron hand. Vengeance feeds & takes a stand. 5 years long this queen burned. But with time gone, lessons learned. Time shows… The banner she carried. God knows… The people were wary. Long ago… Her name now buried. She was known… "Bloody Mary". When power leads with an iron hand. Vengeance feeds & takes a stand. 5 years long this queen burned. But with time gone, lessons learned.
